HCLTech’s Smart Clinical Trial (SCT) solution by HCLTech aims to make clinical trials smarter, faster, and more optimized by accelerating the discovery-to-market journey for a drug.

Pharmaceutical companies continually look at adopting faster and effective drug-development models to address competition, consolidation, effective safety-monitoring and management of patient recruitment and retention issues during trials. This healthcare solution allows all stakeholders involved in the clinical trial management system for a drug. They can leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) technology and perform ‘day-to-day’ safety monitoring of the patients participating in the trial/program, thereby boosting protocol adherence and REMS compliance.

This helps in the early identification of trends/patterns contributing to the enhancement in decision-making capabilities for the trial’s outcome, and save time, effort, and capital for the companies. By enabling e-visits through various smart devices to capture vital signs and e-diary data of trial subjects apart from scheduled visits, the solution helps an investigator/clinician to view patient data in real-time by leveraging the smart ‘Patient Portal.’ It also provides safety monitoring and care through multi-disciplinary teams, effectively and immediately. Thus the clinical trial solution helps improve patient safety, faster completion, and compliance with regulatory demands.
